MusicRow is proud to reveal CMT Senior Vice President of Music Strategy and creator of the ‘Next Women of Country’ franchise, Leslie Fram, will be the special guest for the March 24th Rising Women on the Row breakfast at the Omni Nashville. Guests will be treated to insights from the music industry executive during a conversation with MusicRow Publisher/Owner Sherod Robertson. As previously announced, 10-year-old sensation Emi Sunshine (Red Light Management) will be the featured performer.

The 2015 Rising Women honorees are Kele Currier (ASCAP), Tiffany Dunn (Loeb & Loeb), Dawn Gates (UMG Nashville), Jensen Sussman (Sweet Talk Publicity), and Lou Taylor (Tri Star Sports & Entertainment). To read more about the honorees click here.

Fram, a Georgia Radio Hall of Fame Lifetime Achievement inductee, built an acclaimed radio and broadcasting career during two decades on airwaves in Atlanta (99X), Alabama (WABB) and New York (1019RXP) before CMT President Brian Philips tapped the trend-setter to lead the music strategy division at the channel.

She continued her passion for breaking artists by launching the network’s ‘Next Women of Country’ events in support of female artists. In the last two years the program has highlighted Brandy Clark, Jana Kramer, Kelsea Ballerini, Mickey Guyton, RaeLynn, Angaleena Presley, Maddie & Tae, Lindsay Ell, Kelleigh Bannen, Cassadee Pope, Lauren Alaina and Danielle Bradbery.

With numerous charitable contributions to her credit, Fram was honored as the first woman to receive the TJ Martell Award in recognition of outstanding performance in the music industry (2000) in addition to many accolades including the NARAS-Atlanta Heroes Award (2009). The 2014 Leadership Music graduate currently serves on the boards of TPAC (Board of Governors), ACM (Board of Directors) and NARAS-Nashville (Advisor to Board of Governors).

RWOTR 2015 390x260City National Bank is the Presenting Sponsor for the 2015 Rising Women on the Row.
